The scarf she knitted for my dog Ollie was so thoughtful and a generous gesture. Her smile and conversations about life, your children was a pleasure to remember.

Dear Larry, Bob and I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Lila was a very special woman who we loved to see at the pool hall with you. The scarf she knitted for my dog Ollie was so thoughtful and a generous gesture. Her smile and conversations about life, your children was a pleasure to remember. She was a very special woman whom we are glad to have known. Look up to the sky and know the brightest star is Lila smiling and watching over the special people that gave her joy while on earth. Peace, Lynne and Robert Turin...
